Several holy towns, believed to be the dwelling places of divine forces have come up along the banks of its rivers as have capital cities and centres of trade. By a study of seven cities and the rivers that flow through them, from Sehwan Sharif on the plains of the Indus in Pakistan to Guwahati on the banks of the Brahmaputra in the state of Assam, from Varanasi and Delhi based respectively in the valleys of the Ganges and the Yamuna to Madurai which lies along the banks of the Vaigai in South India while passing through the pilgrimage centres of Amarkantaka and Omkareshwara on the Narmada basin in Central India, this work explores the multiplicity of the visions and emotions that are generated by the practices and land development along the urban river banks. This collective volume proposes to make a multidisciplinary appraisal of this unique heritage which is today threatened by a rapidly expanding population and pollution as well as of the contemporary mutually contradictory perceptions of devotees and tourists, local actors and national level decision makers and shanty town dwellers and members of the urban middle class. L'Asie du Sud, qui dispose de deux des plus grands bassins hydrographiques de la planète, est l'héritière d'une longue histoire urbaine. De nombreuses villes saintes, considérées comme les demeures de forces divines, se sont développées sur des rives également propices à l'installation de capitales et à l'essor de centres de commerce. À travers l'analyse de sept couples villes/fleuves, des plaines du moyen Indus au Pakistan (Sehwan Sharif) à celle du Brahmapoutre en Assam (Guwahati), de la vallée du Gange et de la Yamuna (Bénarès et Delhi), à celle de la Vaigai en Inde du Sud (Madurai) en passant par le bassin de la Narmada, en Inde centrale (Amarkantaka et Omkareshwar), l'ouvrage explore la multiplicité des visions et des? 606 $aGeography 606 $aGanges 606 $aghat 606 $aIndus 606 $aIndia 606 $aPakistan 606 $arivers 606 $acities 606 $aNarmada 606 $aSouth Asia 606 $aville 606 $acours d'eau 610 $aville 610 $acours d'eau 610 $aghat 615 4$aGeography 615 4$aGanges 615 4$aghat 615 4$aIndus 615 4$aIndia 615 4$aPakistan 615 4$arivers 615 4$acities 615 4$aNarmada 615 4$aSouth Asia 615 4$aville 615 4$acours d'eau 700 $aArrago-Boruah$b Émilie$01315918 701 $aCrémin$b Émilie$01315919 701 $aDelage$b Rémy$01307744 701 $aFollmann$b Alexander$01315920 701 $aGuidolin$b Monica$01315921 701 $aJalais$b Savitri$01315922 701 $aJoshi$b Harit$01304657 701 $aOrtis$b Delphine$01307192 701 $aViguier$b Anne$01304661 701 $aJoshi$b Harit$01304657 701 $aViguier$b Anne$01304661 801 0$bFR-FrMaCLE 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910136939003321 996 $aVille et fleuve en Asie du Sud$93032579 997 $aUNINA
